  • Mabel?

  • Blarg!

  • He asked me out again, and I didn't know how to say no!

  • Like this!

  • No!

  • It's not that easy, Dipper.

  • And I do like Gideon as a friend-slash-little-sister, so I didn't want to hurt his feelings.

  • I just need to get things back to where they used to be.

  • You know, friends.

  • Boating tonight!

  • Boating tonight!

  • You know, I thought dancing was gonna be the end of the evening, right?

  • Don't you want this evening to last, my sweet?

  • No!

  • I mean, yes.

  • I mean, I'm always happy to hang out with a friend, buddy, pal, chum, other word for friend.

  • Pal?

  • I always said pal.

  • Uh, mate?

  • How about soulmate?

  • Well, you can't say no to that!

  • Man, he's so nice, but I can't keep doing this.

  • I can't break his heart.

  • I have no way out!

  • What in the heck happened on that date?

  • I don't know.

  • I was in the friend zone.

  • And then before I knew what was happening, he pulled me into the romance zone!

  • It was like quicksand!

  • Chubby quicksand!

  • Mabel, come on.

  • It's not like you're gonna have to marry Gideon.

  • Great news, Mabel!

  • You have to marry Gideon!

  • What?!

  • It's all part of my long-term deal with Buddy Gleeful.

  • There's a lot of cash tied up in this thing.

  • Plus, I got this shirt!

  • Ugh, I am fat.

  • Aaaaaah!

  • Bodies change, honey.

  • Bodies change.

Mabel, tonight's date was a complete success.
